On June 21 powerful storms, including two tornadoes, struck ComEd’s service territory knocking out power to 440,000 customers.
ComEd’s call center responded to nearly 600,000 calls and Web site traffic was at an all-time high as customers reported their outages and checked to find out when power would be restored.
With more than 800 crews, working around the clock ComEd restored service to 90 percent of customers within the first 48 hours. Within three days, the company had restored power to virtually all customers, with some individual, isolated outages lingering into Saturday.
Power outages are more than just an inconvenience; they lower productivity of the region’s economy and cost money.
But what if smart grid technology had been in place?
Why wait to modernize our electric grid? The time to act is now.
